I just wanted to updated everyone on the status of the final Elven Brothers Novella. After checking several author threads, it seems everyone has been having problems publishing their novels on Amazon all day on Sat. It's now almost 2 am Sunday and my book still appears to be stuck in publishing limbo. Hopefully Amazon support will get back to me soon or the problem resolves itself before then. I'll keep everyone posted on the book's status here and through my reader newsletter.

Thanks for all your support and patience!

*Update: Novella is now available at Amazon and Smashwords.All other retailers will follow in 1 -10 days.

Seren lounged beside me, talking about
who-knows-what as I had unconsciously started to tune him out while I stared
hard into the hazy distance for signs of movement. Locien had been gone for
quite some time, but with time flowing differently in the Inbetween, I had no
way of knowing if only ten minutes had passed within the elven realm or an
hour.

After everything they and Emily had told me about
the elven king, I think it would have been more accurate to say that I was
terrified to meet him rather than nervous. I couldn’t even imagine what a man
that had lived over two thousand years would be like, not to mention one who
physically radiated power.

That thought brought me up short, and I turned to
Seren. “I can’t believe I never asked either of you this, but how old are you
two exactly?”

Seren blinked at me curiously. “What brought such a
question on so suddenly?”

“I was just thinking about the impossibility of the
elven king’s age and realized I had never asked.”

“Would it bother you were we both His Majesty’s
age?” he asked.

“Bother…I don’t think so. More like let me put
several things in perspective. The way all of you have described your king
makes him seem like something that couldn’t possibly exist outside of a story—more
than elves, I mean. To actually meet
someone like that face-to-face…” I shivered. “I guess what I’m trying to say is
that it wouldn’t be so overwhelming if it turns out I had already met a couple
of elves just as old and who aren’t so—sorry—alien.” I smiled a little embarrassedly.
